I've been looking for a tripod that reaches eye level, and was lightweight and easy to set up. I have found it. The Sony VCT-R640 Standard Tripod takes care of the basics, even contains a spirit level so that you know your camcorder is shooting straight. This feature is worth the tripod's weight in gold in itself. In addition to this, it's handy levers allow you to pan to the left and right without too much jerkiness.
I actually considered buying their more expensive tripod with all the bells and whistles, having seen a demonstration at the local Sony shop. Now that I have this basic model, I can honestly say that there is no need. The basic model provides all the functionality you need at amateur or semi-professional level.
Oh, and thanks Amazon for delivering it so quickly.

This is my first tripod and im going to be using it mainly for camcorder usage but also it can be used with still cameras.
Its really nice and sturdy with thick legs. Ive seen a couple pics of other makes of tripods and the legs look really thin and flimsy! not the case on this tripod!
Nice little spirit level is a good feature and really does go from being small to being big! it comes to just above my eye level when fully extended legs and the head cranked up all the way with the neat little lever, and im around 5"9
Now im using a Sanyo Xacti HD700 on it at the moment and thats a really small and light video camera! but the tripod still provides quite smooth panning and tilting! It will be better with a larger, heavier video camera.

All I wanted was a basic tripod for my Sony camera, I'm not a professional photographer but would like to be one, so this tripod offered me a starting point from which to build. It does all of your basic tilt and rotate, the height is amazing at approximately 1.6 meters or 7 feet at full height and about 0.6 meters at its smallest, with the addition to changing the different lengths of the legs; it offers an amazing versatility.
If you want a tripod that you can carry in a large rucksack that doesn't cost you the earth with all of those remote control gizmo's then this is the one for you. Good Price, Good Standard ... Happy Customer.

It is what it is
For a budget tripod it's OK. With tripods you get what you pay for so don't expect anything rock solid. Having said that for the enthusiast it offers good value.

fit for purpose
Certainly a quality product, sturdy and robust with a price tag that is anything but standard.
